"Word has gotten around today that Electronic Arts has stealthily removed some of its recent releases from the Steam digital distribution platform, including Crysis 2 and Alice: Madness Returns.
Interestingly, while these titles are available on EA's new Origin service, the games remain available at other popular download stores, such as Amazon and Impulse. Although there has been no official statement from either EA or Valve concerning the matter, it would appear as though EA is preparing to drop the proverbial gauntlet in the battle over digital distribution market share.
This comes in the wake of an E3 announcement that BioWare's upcoming MMO, Star Wars: The Old Republic, would be released exclusively on Origin. Coupled with the upcoming high-profile launch of Battlefield 3, which is rumored to be headed for Origin exclusivity, EA seems to be poised to make a big push against Steam, which has enjoyed virtually uncontested rights to the digital distribution crown.
Given how new the Origin system is, not to mention EA's previous questionable policies with regards to single player access many remain hesitant to adopt the new platform. However, Valve's Steam service endured a very rocky beginning itself before becoming the industry standard, so only time will tell what becomes of EA's new venture."

Ikke smart gjort. Jeg tivler på at deres platform bliver særligt udbredt, da Steam allerede bruges af mange, fås til både MAC og PC plus at mange udgivere har deres spil her. Fornemmer at EA's platform bliver en lukket sag.

Grunden til at Steam har så meget dominans på markedet er vel fordi, ligesom iTunes, at det er nemt. Eller misforstår jeg noget?

#2 Stort udvalg af både store og små titler fra alle mulige udgivere, automatisk patching af dine spil, en glimrende community-feature, over 10 millioner brugere, simpel brugerflade og muligheden for at synkronisere stats og saves over flere computere.
Win-win hvis du spørger mig. (Hvis du da ser bort fra priserne som er helt kogt i låget.)

Fedt med konkurrence.
Jeg gider ikke betale Steams priser, så jeg finder som regel mine spil på sider som http://www.g2play.net .
Men det gælder nu også EAStore 😉
Eks. DNF
Steam: _50
g2play: _33

#5 Der er tit hvor EA faktisk har de billigste priser :P. F.eks for noget tid siden solgte de crysis 2 til 170 kr :D. Når de har tilbud på deres ting så er de vildt billige men ja ellers er de en 20 kr dyrere end f.eks coolshop :)
Men lyder da godt så kan det være vi kan få steam af markedet!!! :D. YES SIR :P

Snart vil alle spil udgivere have deres egen "store". Gider sgu ikke have flere programmer der kan det samme installeret. Jeg holder mig til steam, selvom de har deres små problemer engang imellem. EA store nej tak ;)
